內容簡介
內容簡介 奧地利表現主義畫家•席勒最後歲月1914-1918生命經驗與時代巨變刻入畫面奧地利表現主義藝術家 Egon Schiele(1890–1918)在短短十年間所創作的作品,多半以其重要油畫,以及 1910 至約 1913/14 年間的素描而為人所知。這一時期的創作中,他將自身強烈而不安的情緒狀態投射於人體描繪之中,呈現出一整個世代的內在動盪與精神焦灼。相較之下,1914 年之後的晚期作品,卻鮮少受到關注,也與早期風格形成鮮明對比。此時的線條趨於節制而流暢,更具有機感;人物形體逐漸飽滿,寫實性亦隨之提升。回顧這段轉變,1914 年爆發的戰爭、他與 Edith Harms(1893–1918)的婚姻,以及軍旅生活的單調與壓抑,無疑對他的藝術創作產生了深刻影響。本書同時完整收錄了其妻 Edith Schiele 幾乎不為人知的日記(1915–1918)。在這些文字中,她記錄了自己在動盪時代中的生活經驗、內心思緒與情感感受,為理解 Schiele 晚期創作背後的個人與歷史處境,提供了珍貴而私密的視角。The body of work by the eccentric artist Egon Schiele (1890–1918), created over a period of just ten years, is known above all through his major paintings and those drawings from between 1910 and around 1913 14 in which he processed his own emotional states and expressed the inner turmoil of an entire generation in his depictions of the human figure. His later works after 1914, which differ markedly from his earlier ones, and are less well known. His lines became more measured, flowing, and organic, and his figures filled out and were more realistic. In retrospect, the personal and historical changes and events from 1914 – the outbreak of war, his marriage to Edith Harms (1893–1918), and the tedium of army life – clearly had a profound effect on his artistic output.Among other things, Edith Schiele's almost unknown diary (1915–1918), in which she recorded her experiences, thoughts, and feelings in these difficult times, is published in full.
